No-Sacrifices Fuel CellAdding a larger fuel cell to your rig is a great way to ensure your adventures last longer and also to prevent you from having to carry bulky fuel tanks on the trail. Gen-Right Off Road has released its new heavy-duty Crawler "Armor" Jeep gas tanks available for your TJ, YJ, CJ, or XJ vehicles. These fuel cells allow the rear axle to be moved back 5 inches for increased wheelbase, and they boast 17- to 20-gallon capacities. The Crawler Armor features internal baffling that reduces fuel movement. In addition, these fuel cells allow you to keep your back seat or cargo area intact.

Rig RingsMany enthusiasts tire of stock Toyota inner felt knuckle plates because they are typically very thin and can be easily damaged on the trail. The new Rock Rings by Trail-Gear might be just what you're looking for. They are made from 1/8-inch, 0.125mm steel, providing over three times thicker protection than standard stock units. They are zinc-plated for a long, rust-free life and are sold in a set of four plates to cover both front knuckles. Rock Rings are available for '79-'85 Toyota solid front axle applications.

Yellow Lenses No MoreThe elements can destroy just about anything if you give them enough time. We love to push our rigs to the limit and that includes everything from suspension components to the wear and tear of the vehicle body as well. Wynn's headlight restorer/defogger is a new product that can help keep your headlights free from discoloration and fade. Applying the restorer is a two-step process that first removes all dirt and grime, and then a coating is applied to seal and protect the lens from further abuse.
